"a taxpayer-funded body" is not strictly accurate. Some of us don't have television sets and so don't pay the licence fee.

- gaius 15y agoThat is a fairly facetious argument. After all, you can avoid VAT too, just by not buying anything.
- mike-cardwell 15y agoI prefer the word "accurate". I disagree with your apparent claim that any organisation which sells stuff to a large number of UK citizens is automatically a tax payer funded organisation.
- gaius 15y agoIf you own a TV and only watch Sky, you are required by law to pay the TV tax. What organizations were you thinking of that can compel the purchase of their product in order to consume a rival product?
